minus-squareHelloThere@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up13·10 months agoI’d say Foundation, but the show has been so far away from the books since literally episode 1 that the name might as well be a coincidence.
minus-squareTaleya@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·10 months agoThey very much lampshade that with the whole outliers thing. Events spin off in wildly different directions. If you want a direct translation of the books, no dice, but damn the shit they’ve pulled out of whole cloth with the Cleons is amazeballs.

minus-squareTaleya@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 months agoDid some good stuff with Riose as well. Not looking forward to them fucking up The Mule tho :/
minus-squareabbadon420@lemm.eeOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·10 months agoIt feels more like an addition than an adaptation (it isn’t, but it’s the only perspective in which the show can be good). I’m a big fan of the books, and I’m also enjoying the show so far.
